    NASA SWIFTLY SOLVES 35-YEAR-OLD MYSTERY

    NASA and I have very different ideas on the meaning of the word "swiftly."

      Age of universe being studied: 14,000,000,000 years Time it took them to solve mystery: 00,000,000,035 years All things being relative, thats pretty swift.

      We started off with an acronymn made into an adverb and then "punned" it. You followed with (allegedly) a po-faced response, finishing (perhaps) with a double dollop of sarcasm/irony.

      Each step lost between 50 to 90-something percent of the audience.

      Keep it up and you'll be talking to yourself.
